As a fake half-demon, Yue Jiuling feels that living in the human realm is actually pretty good. However, this is only true if she can retrieve her original body and separated soul. There's no c...
Listening to their conversation, Ya Zi suddenly glanced at the time on her phone and said, "Alright, it's getting late, almost eleven o'clock. Shouldn't we leave?"
Upon hearing Ya Zi's reminder, Huang Xiaojin realized how late it was. She turned to Yue Jiuling and Ya Zi and said, "It's getting late, why don't we head back now?"
Yue Jiuling nodded and said, "Let's go, you should go back too."
"Hey, didn't you say you were going to help us? You just left like that?"
When Lanlan and Xiaomeng heard them say they were leaving, they immediately stood up nervously. Xiaomeng even said, "Don't go yet! What if that headless ghost comes back?"
Lanlan also said, "Can you please not leave? We're scared!"
Yue Jiuling looked at the two girls, then glanced at the dormitory entrance. She suggested, "We're not students, so it's not appropriate for us to stay. How about we let Xiao Jin stay?"
Upon hearing this suggestion, Huang Xiaojin shook her head and said, "No, I'm going to see my grandmother tomorrow and I have to go back tonight. How about this, I'll leave you some amulets, that way we'll be safer."
As Huang Xiaojin spoke, she went to rummage through her schoolbag and took out two amulets for Lanlan and Xiaomeng. She said very solemnly, "These amulets are considered high-level spiritual amulets. They can deal with most evil spirits, so you must keep them safe. It's best to carry them with you at all times. That way, you'll be very safe."
Huang Xiaojin left two amulets and then left with Yue Jiuling and Ya Zi. She said she would help resolve the matter and asked Lanlan and Xiaomeng to wait for her to return after her vacation.
As for Yue Jiuling and Ya Zi, after they finished acting as 'parents' this time, they were only responsible for safely sending the person home and did not intend to care about anything else. After all, the Huang family could handle this matter.
After sending Huang Xiaojin back, Yue Jiuling went to work the next day and told Mu Xiaoyi about what happened last night. She also said that her little cousin was not as well-behaved as she seemed on the surface, and was actually quite cunning.
After hearing about this, Mu Xiaoyi called Huang Xiaojin and gave her a lecture. She apologized to Ya Zi and Yue Jiuling: "Oh dear, I'm sorry. Actually, Xiaojin is usually very well-behaved. Maybe she's been disobedient lately. How about this, to thank you, I'll treat you to dinner tonight?"
"No, let's go to Xiaobaicai's restaurant tonight. But you can treat us to dinner again next month."
Yue Jiuling was playing on her phone while lying on the desk in the office. She texted Feng Meng, saying, "But are you planning to help your little cousin's roommate?"
"I don't care about this. Let Xiao Jin find her parents or someone else herself," Mu Xiaoyi said, biting the straw of her milk tea. "The Huang family is no worse than our Mu family. I'm too lazy to cause trouble for myself. I'd rather spend that time on dates with my darling."
Hearing Mu Xiaoyi start showing off her love again, Bai Xinyu, Ye Dongfeng, and Yin Ni rolled their eyes at her.
Bai Xinyu clicked her tongue and said, "Tsk tsk~ So what if you have a boyfriend~"
Ye Dongfeng also snorted: "Hmph~ That's right, so what if you have a girlfriend?"
Hidden away, she reached out and snatched the snack box from Mu Xiaoyi's table, saying, "How can someone with a boyfriend eat so much? Look at yourself, you've gotten so fat!"
Only Xiaobaicai remained silent, secretly smiling as she watched her colleagues with a look of amusement.
"Shut up, you single dogs are just jealous of me. Besides, you're the fattest one!"
Mu Xiaoyi hugged her snack box, pretending to be angry. As she turned her head, she pinched Xiao Baicai's cheek and said, "Hmph, were you secretly laughing too?"
The little cabbage felt a bit innocent after having its cheek pinched.
While playing games nearby, Ya Zi noticed that Yue Jiuling had secretly pulled out several packets of cookies from the snack box in a corner where Mu Xiaoyi couldn't see her. He then discreetly reached out, indicating his desire for a share of the spoils.
Yue Jiuling glanced at Ya Zi, then generously gave him the snacks she had. She then secretly went to steal Mu Xiaoyi's snacks, but this time she not only failed but was also caught red-handed.
"Ugh~ Jiuling, you're so mean! These are snacks my sweetheart bought for me, how dare you steal them~"
Mu Xiaoyi slapped away the sneaky, furtive hand, while Yue Jiuling, who had been slapped, laughed heartily.
"Haha~ Why be so stingy? Give us all a share!"
"Yeah, why be so stingy~"
Just as the group was laughing and joking, Director Yu came out, holding a document in his hand, and said, "Ahem, comrades, we have work to do again~"
